BAHAMAS CAREER: said to have served ports of Long Island Bahamas from Nassau. For sale and no longer in service
CAPTAINS: not known
FATE: One source says she is for sale in April 2014, since August 2013. However another, a Government ship surveyor named Capt. Calum Legett believes that the ship was sunk as a reef or on a reef in 2007.
OWNERS: not known and not given at Equasis.org, the IMO site
NOTES: Since June 2010, meaning that she was not sunk in 2007, the ship has been out of classification and her flag has been suspended, so if she is for sale it will likely just be for scrap due to the cost or re-documenting her.
